Fastin™ ELASTIN Assay

The Fastin™ Assay is a quantitative dye-binding method for the analysis of elastins released into tissue culture medium and extracted from biological materials.

Elastin forms that can be measured:

  1. soluble tropoelastins;
  2. lathyrogenic elastins;
  3. insoluble elastins (as solubilised elastin polypeptides [α-elastin, κ-elastin])
    Furthermore:
  4. elastase activity can be measured, using elastin as an enzyme substrate


    5. Assay time: 4 hours     Assay sensitivity: 0.5µg
